Elevation Recruitment is working in partnership with an established engineering business in Sheffield to recruit an experienced CNC Lathe Machinist to join its manufacturing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a skilled machinist who takes pride in producing precision-engineered components to exacting standards, working with high-grade materials and interpreting complex engineering drawings.

The role would suit someone with previous oil and gas machining experience who understands the importance of accuracy, quality and efficiency when manufacturing critical components.

If you have hands-on CNC Lathe experience, a strong understanding of machining processes and experience working with challenging materials such as Inconel 718, we'd like to hear from you.

As a CNC Lathe Machinist, you will be responsible for manufacturing precision components in line with customer specifications, engineering drawings and internal quality procedures.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Operating CNC Lathes to manufacture precision-engineered components.
• Machining components from engineering drawings, ensuring all dimensions and specifications are met.
• Working with high-grade materials, including Inconel 718.
• Selecting and applying appropriate tooling to achieve the required machining standards.
• Understanding and applying the correct tool feeds and speeds to optimise machining processes and cycle times.
• Ensuring components are manufactured within estimated production times without compromising quality.
• Maintaining high standards of accuracy and attention to detail throughout the manufacturing process.
• Following company quality procedures and maintaining a clean, safe and organised working environment.
• Identifying and resolving machining issues to minimise disruption and maintain production efficiency.

This is a skilled machining position, and relevant industry experience is essential.

To be considered, you will need:

• At least 2 years' machining experience within the oil and gas industry.
• Practical, hands-on experience operating CNC Lathes.
• The ability to confidently interpret and work from engineering drawings.
• A good working knowledge of tooling applications and machine tool capabilities.
• An understanding of machining feeds and speeds and how to apply these to achieve efficient cycle times.
• Experience machining high-grade materials, ideally including Inconel 718.
• A strong commitment to quality, accuracy and precision engineering.
• Good communication and problem-solving skills.
• The flexibility to work a rotating days and nights shift pattern.

• Competitive salary, dependent on experience.
• An opportunity to work within a specialist engineering and manufacturing environment.
• The chance to utilise and develop your CNC machining expertise.
• Exposure to the manufacture of high-specification components and challenging engineering materials.
• A role where quality, technical ability and attention to detail genuinely matter.

If you're an experienced CNC Lathe Machinist with an oil and gas manufacturing background and the technical skills to produce precision components to demanding standards, we'd love to hear from you.
